So do we still need a new goalkeeper?

Hopefully his previous performances have been down to lack of confidence, which todays game will have helped enormously. Probably a bit early to say he's the answer to our problems though, even Tommy Forecast must have had one good game at some point. Happy to be proved wrong though...

I'd say it's down to lack of playtime.

 

EDIT: Even though I don't think he's really done anything wrong in previous matches.

Yes Bo played well for much of the game and certainly won us the game with some great saves, but he did flap early on and we were really lucky it his parry (when it was easier to catch the ball) did not fall to a Villa player - otherwise it was a certain goal. One or two other occasions early on as well when he looked very iffy! Even the commentators on the stream I was watching commented on it.

 

Hopefully it was just confidence / nerves and the rest of the performance will help that? In any case we need to pick one keeper and stick with him - Bo seems the best of what we have right now.

Played well yesterday, BUT; is he a loose cannon, does he have the experience to BOSS the area and the back four, I have always said give Boruc a chance BUT I do feel very much for KD

 

Ummm, he certainly has the experience, yes. Have you seen his CV?

For **** sake, this is like the 10th time I see someone comment on this situation.

 

Yoshida TOUCHED the ball before it got to Boruc and THAT is the reason as to why he couldn't keep it.

Look at the slow-mo replay and you will se..

Yoshida then cleared the ball away after Borucs parry, he knew that he had touched the ball and therefore was going back fast to cover his mistake.

And there was me thinking that was just a great bit of defending from the pair of them, great reflex save, great reading of the game and anticipation by Maya. :rolleyes::rolleyes:

Do you guys still think we need a replacement for Boruc?

Would you blame him if he left during the summer because of the mocking he has had to endure from our fans?

My answer to both questions is no.

 

 

I think he's the best bet for the near future, so not a replacement, but we need some good quality cover in the event of injury, etc......KD is counting his games, and (sorry) .but Gazzaniga isn't up to it YET !

 

I'd hate for us to have to depend on him in the last 5/6 games..if the need arose.

I think it's fair to say we all do, but in reality he isn't...and never will be .... a Prem quality keeper, but I still admire the guy. Everyone has to move on at sometime...and his time may be closer than we think.

I was not at the game I understand Boruc had a good game however I have seen all the other games he has played & I think he is the worse keeper out of the 3 we have he kicking is awful & I have no confidence in him at all.

 

We desperatley need a new keeper & 2 centre backs if we are going to give ourselfs a good chance of staying up some quality experience & leadership in goal & at centre back would be the making of our team

why does he look so fat? he is Definitely the best of a bad bunch of keepers but no long term solution he has maybe a couple of seasons in him tops and all though he had a good game Saturday I feel another disaster performance is around the corner as he often tries to be cocky in the penalty area doing silly stuff with the ball when he should just boot it away
